Under current pharmacopoeial and regulatory frameworks, quality-control requirements for this class of reference material explicitly involve the control of targets including (E)-4-Methylpent-2-enal.
(E)-4-Methylpent-2-enal (CAS 24502-08-7), molecular formula C6H10O and molecular weight 98.14 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.
Based on its molecular formula C6H10O, (E)-4-Methylpent-2-enal contains a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage; these features give the compound characteristic functional-group stretching vibrations in infrared spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 98.14 g/mol is directly relevant to the identification of the molecular ion in mass spectrometry.
This reference standard is suitable for quantitative analysis on major chromatographic platforms including HPLC, GC, LC-MS/MS, and GC-MS, serving as an external calibration standard or a system suitability test reference material.
As a certified reference material (CRM), (E)-4-Methylpent-2-enal meets the metrological traceability requirements of ISO/IEC 17025 laboratories. Batch-to-batch consistency is monitored via control charts to guarantee comparable assigned values across lots.
